Jewel of the Seas — Reykjavik; Black Sand of Reynisfjara


Reynisfjara, Dyrhólaey Nature Reserve

There is much to see here at Reynisdrangar. We’ll be spending some time discussing it over the next several articles, starting today with the ink-black sand of this incredible beach and the basalt stacks that rise from its shore and the ocean.

And, yes, here’s you’ll find puffin breeding grounds on the high cliffs and seabirds accumulating on the beaches:

Puffin Awaiting Its Mate
Birds of a Feather Flocking Together

Now let’s enjoy the beach, cliffs, and other vistas. Visually, of course. No way we were going swimming in these temperatures.
